SO SLOW…ordering here is like watching paint dry. Takes ages and just tedious. Why is ordering here every time so so slow and takes forever for the food to get to you?

Went here two nights running, first night we ordered 3 x Mc Flurrys only. The electronic order machines were all out of paper and it took ages to get our ice creams. Next night we ordered big mac meals x 3. Again it seems no one had bothered to put paper in the order machines since our last visit? cost saving perhaps. Waited for 20 mins for our order - presumed as we waited so long it would at least be fresh. Nope - It was almost stone cold even the fries - what did we wait 20 mins for if they are not making them fresh?. The fries were really strange like cardboard - not sure if they had been re-warmed up in a microwave? The burger was the same, really disappointing. We all left 50% of our food as it was like eating cold cardboard. Will avoid next time

Short orders, on deliveries. This is the 2nd time I have ordered for delivery and the 2nd time the order was missing items. I can't remember the item(s) last time but today it was a large chocolate milkshake and the large chips were short. It would cost me a si.olar Vale to drive down and complain and they aren't answering the phone.

Éclaté au sous sous sol de la cave où j'enferme mouloud. La commande a pris 3mille ans j'avais le temps de faire des gosses en attendant les chiotes c'était un camion poubelle sans roue. Et le pire c'est qu'ils m'ont jeté mes frites pendant que j'étais entrain de poser un classique. Eux ils ont le temps mais pas moi c'est quoi ça. En résumé ce restaurant est recommandé à tous les fans de mouloud. Signé ze Z

It's literally a lucky dip! You'll either be given someone else's order or have items missing from your order. It's happened to me as well as family and friends multiple times by ordering online and visiting the store in person. The staff are obviously the kind of people that stand at the urinal with their trousers and pants around their ankles!

Me and my two best friends were in Lockmeadow, Maidstone, playing bowling, after this we felt like we should go and get a McDonald’s so we walked to the McDonalds we have had no problems with this McDonalds before as we have been there many times, but when we walked in and ordered we noticed that the machine wouldn’t print out the receipt, This was not a big deal, but our order number wasn’t on the screen either, one woman complained that she didn’t get her food until 20 minutes later, many more people complained that they were waiting for their food it was a joke to even call this a “fast food” restaurant, It took ages for our cold food to arrive, many people in the McDonalds didn’t know what order number they were due to the faulty machines so lots of people waited ages and didn’t even get anything, I would have expected better from this, Please for the love of god Improve, I don’t want to experience anything like this ever again.

I always go to this mcd on thursday to pick up a takeaway after work for the family. I use the app to order food in advance and pick it up at the drive through. Once im at the food point im given my drinks and mcflurries then 90% of the time im told to wait in the carpark, and normal wait times in the last few months are between 15-20mins. This is not great in the hotter months as the icecream and milkshakes melt fast whilst waiting. Most of the time dips are not in the bags even though they are supposed to come with the meals i order and i specify what dips during the order process on the app. In the last 6 visits 5 of those visits items have been missing, such as a big mac, chicken wrap, cheese burger twice, chicken selects. Really fed up of this place, but is the most convenient mcd for me, and my son prefers Mcd then other takeaway options for the once a week takeout meal that we do.

The food was cold which surprise me as the place wasn’t very busy at all. The double cheeseburger I had, had a distinct odd flavour about it and later in the evening and this morning I have stomach issues which is not usual for me. I can only assume our trip here is the reason. One of the nastiest “meals” I’ve had at a McDonalds. Thankfully my daughter appears unaffected.

Awful service!! Sat at collections window in drive through for about 8 minutes before someone’s opened it. Food was cold and coffee even colder… this is a regular thing here or you get half a portion of chips when you order so that you have to make an uncomfortable situation and complain to get what you paid for. Very poorly run and the worst Mc Donald’s in the the area or anywhere I have used hands down.

Just received a fine for being in their car park too long!! Doesn’t take into account that we had to queue to get a space in the car park for ages, just took a photo as we entered the first bit clearly sat in a queue! The queues inside were horrendous, no one answering the tills at the front, and only 2 screens working to order from, so slow to get through all of this that it made us go over the time limit and now a £100 fine!! Ridiculous!

Is this the worst McDonalds in the UK? Quite possibly. Food was cold. All of it. Grand Mac looked like the separate pieces had been thrown in a box, with little attempt to make it look like a burger. It was so cold the cheese hadn’t melted. At all. Staff just oblivious to how poor the outlet and the food are. Customers next to us were ‘enjoying’ an identical experience. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. McDonalds Head Office need to seriously look at this branch, what they are selling is barely edible. This isn’t worth anywhere near a Trip Advisor rating of one, negative scale needed.

After a long day travelling we met our son in McDonald’s to get something to take home but needed a toilet before going through the drive through. There are four cubicles in the ladies and each one of them were disgusting!!! I obviously couldn’t go to the toilet so left! As I was walking out there was a member of staff cleaning the floor and she had a look like she had lost the will to live so I didn’t even bother telling her! I went down stairs to meet my partner where we could hear all the staff swearing at each other across the counter!! We then went out to the car to go through the drive through.......I wish I had just gone straight home as the food was disgusting, cold and the chips were half filled. I won’t be coming back to this McDonald’s again, its the worst I’ve ever been to and we’ve been here a few times so not just a one off experience.

I was then told that my name had been ‘crossed off the list’ so I have already claimed the meal!!!!! I asked to speak to a manager, she was very rude and basically told me I was a lier and had already had my meal! Disgusting customer service and also the food has not been much better the last few times I’ve been here. No you in my little ones happy meal on this occasion too! Never any balloons.

The Customer Services Manager dealt with them very well. He was calm but authoritative, and managed to diffuse the situation before it got out of hand. Later, I saw the same Customer Services Manager, whose name is Michael, calming sweeping up and clearing g tables. He made what could have been an unpleasant experience into a good experience. I even stayed on after our meal to enjoy a coffee and let my grandsons play.

I have seen many small food businesses come and go over the years, moving into little shops, selling lovely food and getting the margins slightly wrong and ending up closing down. Not enough people would go. The rates were a bit too high. They tried so hard. They dreamed. They planned. They failed. Mourned by their regulars, the proprietors often ending up going back to work for "the man", leaving self employment behind and the town a little poorer and less interesting. Sometimes their personal relationships couldn't stand the strain of the effort and the sacrifice. Sometimes they lost everything.So then, along comes the flavour free pap spewing mega-corps waving it's wad of cash and builds not one but TWO drive-in sludge purveying rubbish scattering churches to the God of Bland Uniformity. Not in an existing building, no, but starting afresh from the ground up: Identical brand spanking new temples to nutritional deficiency. Just what the town needed. And they come. My God do they come. Endless hordes, nose to tail, day and night, out of the woodwork, out of the housing estates and off the ring road and the bypass they come, flying in the face of all they have ever heard about eating a balanced diet, golden arches reflecting in their dead eyes like an incompetent graffiti artist's rendition of a pair of massive distended breasts, infantile teats pumping heart stopping transfats into their desperately suckling maws, slaves of their insatiable infantile hunger for that which can never satisfy. Cold chips? Yes please. Fluffy meat patties? Yes please. More, more, more. Just let it be cheap, cheap, cheap and let it have a packet I can leave in the street for the other tax payers to pick up later. Mugs. I don't care. Why should I? It's not my problem. It's not my fault. Somebody else did it. Not me. I just NEED IT! GIVE IT TO ME!NOW!And so they win. And everybody loses, because everybody chooses to lose.

Ive struggled with trust issues all my life (it was the cause of my marriage breakdown) and I thought "ill trust these kind mcodnalds workers with my food ill give them the benefit of the doubt" well wrong decision I made wasn't it? I said to myself I wouldn't look at the food I will wait until I get home to my good friend lindas house, so we can eat together. We sat down and began our meals, firstly my wrap contained both BBQ AND COOL MAYO which I can ensure you was not very "cool" mcdonalds! Next I put my hand in our oversized paper bag to retrieve what I thought was going to be a portion of large fries but insead turned out to be a handful of disappointment and tears when I realised THEY HAD FORGOTTEN OUR FRIES. We thought it couldnt get much worse than this but to top it all off we were presented with only 2 ketchups 1/3 of what I requested and did I pay 1/3 of the prie for it... I think not and no sweet chilli sauce. so we went to kfc instead,

On 16th September 2016 I met friend, who I have not seen for a long time, for a meal and several coffees. Unfortunately there is a maximum time limit to park of 90 minutes. As we arrived separately we have been hit with 100.00 parking fines (each). I stayed for 162 minutes and my friend stayed slightly longer. So be warned, if you met friends and you talk too much it is going to cost you. Hard lesson learned. Now the hunt for a new place for a reasonable cost meal and coffee for when we next meetup.

After a long weekend I decided to visit this restaurant on my journey back home, very well presented and clean but only problem was getting in the right lane whilst driving to get to the restaurant... Was quite confusing. Apart from that the staff were helpful and was nice to see happy faces!

It's slow service in here they do a lot of chatting and not a lot of service but the food is the same as usual apart from a distinct lack of salt on the fries.

Just like any other McDonald's all in all. Staff are very friendly and the place is kept very clean. Food is the same as any other McDonald's. Never had any problems or complaints.

This review is for the McDonalds opposite the Law courts in Maidstone. The McD is fairly new enjoying a prime location close to the movie theatres. For a new McD you would think they would be on the ball. Less than a year from opening this place is screaming out for a shake up in service and food standards. Slow slow service, orders wrong, food barely warm and mistake after mistake. Thinking this was just early teething problems for a new establishment, almost a year later the same problems exist. How hard can it be when you serve the same limited menu day after day? Wrong orders, slow service, especially the drive through that can be up to a 15 minutes wait outside of rush hour. Forget it during rush hour, they just cant cope. 50% of the time in drive thru you are asked to park up because the order is taking too long. Inside isn't much better. Items missing, wrong drinks and an ambience of disorganisation. Needs some major staff training and management that are enthusiastic and not morally disengaged.

Ok Saturday lunchtime with the kids looking for a table for six is not going to be easy. Very popular McDonalds so I would always expect to wait for a table. We were lucky and got one after we ordered. Food and service good as always

Don't bother.Complete shambles..Drive through food never ready.Always end up being told to park and they'll bring it over when they're ready. Worst MacDs ever used.

The food in here is barely tepid. Twice this evening taken food back for being cold. Yes, it's a fast food place, but when you bite into a burger and it's cold. It's not nice. 3rd time of getting my meal and it's STILL not hot, getting fed up of taking it back. A place to AVOID like the plague!

My first ‘food visit’ (usually just coffee) & I was pleasantly surprised. Placed my ‘meal’ order & asked for the fillet & fresh to be hot & freshly made, I didn’t mind waiting if I needed to rather than have lukewarm food that had been sitting on the shelves for ages.It was served up to me in an impressive 4 minutes; took my food upstairs & sat in a pleasant clean environment; friendly staff, clean loos, clean restaurant & obviously a popular restaurant for a cross section of customers, I could see tradesmen, college students, office meetings taking pace, young mums as well as barristers/legal staff from the main court over the road & people like myself just popping in for a quick fuel up. Oh & the food was great, lovely & hot! So all in all, I’d rate it, go enjoy! x

Never a fan of this chain of fast food restaurants but they provide a quick source of calories at a low price. This newly opened branch works on the principle of one person taking the customer's order and giving a number. One then has to wait for your number to appear on a screen before claiming one's food. The waiting area was quite crowded and sitting was not an option. The Big Mac Meal was tasteless with a leathery texture to the bun and despite having waited supposedly while the meal was being cooked, it was at best tepid. Even the fries failed to please. Because it was so bad I went back the next day thinking I might have been unfair but sad to say it was just the same. This restaurant has a very compact foot print and I fear it is simply not big enough to run efficiently.

This place used to be a car dealers and is now one of the modern McDonalds chains. It is on two floors with a nice mix of seating and appeared to be pretty clean. You can queue to order or use some large touchscreen displays. I did the latter and ordered a new peri peri chicken wrap meal. You pay at the terminal and get an order number. I waited about 4-5 minutes for mine to be ready and it was worth the wait. I went upstairs to eat it and found a seat straight way. Great value and pretty filling.

I have been through the driveway several times. The food is often cold, and the burgers are below standard. The driveway is shut during the advertised opening times. I have never left this place thinking, that was good. Complete waste of time. I thought the place would improve but never does. Wish it was Burger King instead. Attached is the photo what was supposed to be a quarter pounder.

Strangest McDonalds we've ever been in. Put your order in at the counter, get given a ticket and then wait and wait. Considering this was an order for just two drinks and they were not particularly busy the wait was puzzling. People standing around waiting for their orders. Regardless of how big orders were they appeared to be given out in numerical order. If this is the way forward for McDs then it ain't working. Give me a good old fashioned place order, pay for order, get order from one point, in my experience it's much quicker.

This McDonald's does not stand out compared to the rest in the chain. It is a normal burger and chips, not what the adverts rave about.

I would have given this a 5 on looks but the service lets itself down. Ive visited 3 times since it opened and every time I've used the self service hoping it would speed things up but it certainly hasn't. I don't really see the point in having a number either if when it goes up on the screen the food is still not there and someone just looks at you blankly, none of the staff in this section seem to have any people skills. I also find the fact the play area is upstairs very awkward as I have two small children who want to use it but trying to carry food and push a push chair at the same time is impossible. The lifts are probably the slowest I've ever been in as well so your food is cold by the time you get upstairs. Will be ok when my kids grow out of a pushchair but for now very annoying

Ordered chicken wings as part of the takeaway and they were pink not thoroughly cooked and then spent £4.99 on some waffles with chocolate, which are basically the Mcvity waffles or the one you get in Aldi with just a bit of chocolate sauce thrown on them, not worth £4.99 as they aren’t proper waffles

Food and coffee typical costa standard. Let down by the staff. We were in the hotel next door for two days and intended to breakfast there. 1st day we arrived 20mins after advertised opening and they were only just getting ready so we ended up in the McDonald's as did two other customers (costa apened about 15 to 20 minutes later, so at leat 40 mons after stated ) Following day we arrived 15.minutes after opening, waited couple. Of minutes, girl removed the board at entrance, then was off hand when we asked if it was OK to go in, then we still had to wait for the counter staff to get ready. OK food. And drink but could really do with getting act together.

Took my son and his friends for lunch after trampolining. Waited over 20 minutes for our order, which was freezing cold and a burger short which had to then be made. No apology for the missing item. Clearly not the staffs fault, but it was also complete chaos - teens throwing food, swearing and generally making a nuisance of themselves, so couldn't even eat our cold burgers and soggy chips in peace. Definitely won't be back!
